There has been a delay in me putting these up thanks to the modern challenges of technology, but I was lucky enough to make the Man Utd vs Blackburn game last week and thought I would share a couple of snaps. In my life, I will never get as good seats again. South stand, fourth row between the tunnel and the dug out. My wife and I sat either side of the fading 22 yard line fading from a previous rugby league match.
El-Hadji Diouf has agreed a move to Blackburn from Sunderland for an undisclosed fee. Diouf had signed for Sunderland in the summer 2008 has failed to get a goal in his 14 appearances for Sunderland.
He has a chequered disciplinary history, including a penchant for spitting at players and fans. However, he did enjoy 3 good years under Sam Allardyce at Bolton and both will be hoping that he can recapture and build upon that form at Blackburn.
Diouf will not be available for Blackburn on Saturday having missed the 12pm registration deadline today.
Man City have had an improved bid for Roque Santa Cruz rejected by Blackburn. This is despite Santa Cruz again openly stating his desire to move away from Blackburn.
City boss Mark Hughes has also confirmed that the club have made an offer for Shay Given, and are waiting to hear back from Newcastle.
